Oh wow! If you weren't already my favorite reactor you would be now. You took a journey into true history. Thank you so much. Now you can see where the inspiration for so much of what we have came from. This isn't just grand daddy, epic or legend. This was the big bang.
My guess on the animal roaming the forest at 15:12 is a striped hyena, it is native to the Caucasus mountain region, in this area the story is set in. They are related to the more well known African hyenas.
Outstanding pick, Flixy! Remember, this was prior to American Dracula (but is evidently the second foreign Dracula movie). Secondly...I mean c'mon, it's 1922 and Germans made it in the dawn of Cinema if you will. It's from an era where actors were more theater-focused, so the make-up is outstanding, and everything is greatly overacted (for ease of understanding by the audience). There were no real rules to storytelling, other than making it simple (and limits of technology).
Can you imagine going to a drive-in theater, with the giant screen, and in a pit in front of the screen, an entire orchestra just blasting out the music? That would be what this was meant for (at least in the old theaters).
And the werewolf is actually the most true to history in this movie that I know of...it wasn't until way more recently that werewolves were supposedly giant, and ran around on two legs. In the old days, the stories were that it was just a man that turned into a dog or wolf the size...of a dog or wolf. In this movie, it's just a hyena painted up, but it works!
The Carpathians are the mountain ranges. Also it used to be a society, I think.
Fast forward 10 years from this movie, and you got sound, with Bela Lugosi underplaying Dracula compared to this movie (thanks to sound), but still overplaying it much like theater (but much lower keyed) compared to today.
The other excellent Nosferatu movie is Shadow of the Vampire with John Malkovich and Willem Dafoe, which I highly recommend.
Well said. Great comment thanks!
"Your wife has such a beautiful neck..."
Fun Fact: The film is included on the late Roger Ebert's "Great Movies" list.
Location Location Fact: After 85 years, virtually all of the exteriors are left intact in the cities of Wismar and Lübeck.
Lost In Adaptation Fact: The concept in popular culture that sunlight is lethal to vampires is based on this film, which depicted such a death for the very first time in film history. F.W. Murnau knew that he would be sued for borrowing heavily from Bram Stoker's novel Dracula (1897) without permission, so he changed the ending in order that he could say that this film and Dracula (1897) were not exactly the same. However that would not pass the legal smell test. All known prints and negatives were destroyed under the terms of settlement of a lawsuit by Bram Stoker's widow. Thankfully, the film would subsequently surface through second-generation reels in other countries.
Glad you enjoyed the film! Silent films were originally made to be shown with live musical accompaniment. Present-day audiences, who are accustomed to musical cues provided on modern film sound tracks, may take more readily to accompanied silent films than to some of the early sound films, (like the 1931 Dracula), which were basically filmed stage plays. You should definitely add the iconic 1925 version of the Phantom of the Opera to your list, as well as Frankenstein (1931). The latter is an early sound film with minimal musical soundtrack, but I think you'll find it a better watch than Dracula of the same year.
"Shadow of the Vampire" (2000)
To compliment this viewing you should check out the movie Shadow of the Vampire with Willem defoe and Malchovich.👍
Edit. Also i see the new one also has willem defoe potentially as Van Helsing? That must be an easter egg in relation to Shadow of the vampire not many will get.....
Now you have to check out the Werner Herzog remake
I have it!
finally get to see it! ty :)
I can't watch Nosferatu now without thinking of Shadow of the Vampire. Both very good films.
OOOHHH MY GAWD.. THIS FILM STILL ROCKS AND STANDS THE TEST OF TIME. Max Shreck , who plays Count Orlock/Nosferatu was believed to be an actual vampire..They were being racist. But it is why I highly suggest you watch " Shadow of the Vampire" as it plays on that premise... It has Willem Defoe as Max Shreck and is FRIGGIN HILARIOUS!
Yes!!! You finally reacted to it!!! I will watch your reaction right after I come back from work. Now that you've seen this, I hope you get to see other silent horror classics like The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari (1919), The Golem (1920) and The Phantom of the Opera (1925). 😊
I haven't seen The Golem, but Caligari and Phantom are chef's kiss.
@alibabaghanoujtv Me too! LOL! I actually have The Golem on DVD but it's still sealed in the plastic! Haven't opened it yet! LOL! But I will watch it sometime this week. 😊
I LOVE your genuine and sincere reactions, and I hope that you react to other classic and silent movies in the future. Charles Chaplin films (one of the pioneers in the movie business and certainly one of the greatest directors of all time) have stood the test of time. I think you would enjoy many of his masterpieces. He has a lot!: "The Kid", "The Gold Rush", "City Lights", ""Modern Times", "The Great Dictator", "The Circus", "The Pilgrim", "Shoulder Arms", "A Dog's Life"...
Thank you for the wonderful comment 🙏🏾😊 and yes , I will look into those recommendations for the future watches!
The remake will be trash. I didn't even care for the 1979 version, but a remake in 2024 is almost guaranteed to be a trash fire. There is only one Nosferatu and you just watched it.
I am honestly hope the new ones nails it..I'm being optimistic
